Abstract
This article proposes new theoretical results on the multiple Mittag-Leffler stability of almost periodic solutions (APOs) for fractional-order delayed neural networks (FDNNs) with nonlinear and nonmonotonic activation functions. Profited from the superior geometrical construction of activation function, the considered FDNNs have multiple APOs with local Mittag-Leffler stability under given algebraic inequality conditions. To solve the algebraic inequality conditions, especially in high-dimensional cases, a distributed optimization (DOP) model and a corresponding neurodynamic solving approach are employed. The conclusions in this article generalize the multiple stability of integer- or fractional-order NNs. Besides, the consideration of the DOP approach can ameliorate the excessive consumption of computational resources when utilizing the LMI toolbox to deal with high-dimensional complex NNs. Finally, a simulation example is presented to confirm the accuracy of the theoretical conclusions obtained, and an experimental example of associative memories is shown.
